Savon de Marseille â € "When making this wonderful Natural French Soap begin?

Savon de Marseille (soap Marseille), is believed to be the best soap in the world and is known for its ability to clean powerful, and their suitability for people with sensitive skin, including babies through their qualities and adults. It can also be used for laundry and household cleaning in general. It consists of 72 percent of the fatty acids derived from the ashes of a mixture of oils and soda or sea salt and 28 percent water. So how not to soap making this wonderful natural French start?

The origin of Savon de Marseille is no doubt of soap of Aleppo, which has existed for thousands of years. The manufacturing method originating in the city of Aleppo in Syria, and constituting a base of olive oil and laurel oil, spread throughout the Mediterranean basin following the Crusades, from through Italy and Spain to reach Marseilles.

Crescas Davin was the manufacturer of Marseille first soap in the 14th century and in 1593 a man named Georges Prunemoyr opened the soap first factory in Marseilles, when demand began to exceed local needs. In 1660 there were seven mills in the city using production local olive oil as feedstock, along with the ashes of the burning of plant salt marsh Salicorne. The production was almost 20 000 tons of soap a year.

In 1688, Louis XIV introduced regulations (Edict of Colbert) limit the use of a name € œSavon of Marseilleâ € to soaps made in and around the region Marseille, and only from virgin olive oil. The quality of production was such that "Savon de Marseille" became a household name. At that time soap was green and are usually sold in 5kg bars or bars of 20 kg. In 1786, 48 factories in Marseilles produced 76 000 tonnes, which employs 600 workers and 1 500 prisoners on loan.

After the French Revolution in 1789, the manufacture of Savon de Marseille, continued to expand and climbing to 62 factories in 1813. The ash soda is obtained from seawater through a process developed by Nicolas Leblanc. By the 1820s, new oils and fats were imported and passed through the port of Marseille, which encouraged more factories to occur throughout the region in places like the Salon-de-Provence, Toulon, Arles.

Finally, instead of using the palm, copra, peanut and sesame oil, factories turned to the much cheaper tallow because factories heavy form of competition in Paris and in fact England.

In the nineteenth century, the city of Marseilles, with almost 90 plants, had a thriving industry that peaked in 1913 with about 180 000 tonnes produced. In 1906, Franà § ois Merklen was responsible for establishing the formula of Savon de Marseille: 63 percent coconut oil or palm, 9 percent of soda ash or sea salt, 28 per cent water.

After the First World War, the Savonnerie soap factories () enjoy the progress mechanization, and without losing the quality of the product due to the use of the above processes, production rose again to 120 000 tonnes in 1938. When World War II broke out, Marseille still represented half of the production of soap in France, but the following years to see its decline. Soap was replaced by synthetic detergents and the factories started closing one after another. Today, only a handful of manufacturers to remain in the region, but still world class manufacturing overcoming natural soap.
